Cup, unique piece - Desirode Collection & a touch of tea

Arawi cups (Arawi means Poetry in the Quechua language) are handcrafted ceramics. The cup is made pinched in red stoneware, meaning the potter does not use a wheel to shape her works. Ashes inside.

The creations developed by Desirode for Maison un air de thé come from stoneware clays with their original colors that have not been modified. She takes great care to use natural products for their finishing, in particular by recycling ashes from Bordeaux fireplaces to create the recipes.

Dimensions of the stoneware cup:

Approximately 9 cm in diameter
